TURA: Online D.EL.Ed trainee teachers from Zekabari exam centre, who were marked absent for the Community and Elementary Education subject in their mark sheets for the said examination held earlier, met Chief Minister Conrad Sangma urging him to look into the error.
The teachers met the chief minister in Tura where they handed him a memorandum with the exam day’s attendance enclosed. The examination for the subject was conducted on December 21, 2018. “We apprised the chief minister of the matter and he has assured to take steps to rectify the error,” said Bablu Daring Sangma, one of the teachers.
Besides, a delegation comprising the affected teachers also met Tura MP Agatha K Sangma at her residence in Tura where they handed over a copy of the same memorandum and urged her to take up the matter with the MHRD Minister. It may be mentioned that the matter was taken up with D.EL.Ed authorities several times in the past by the affected teachers. However, each time they were informed that the error has been committed by NIOS and a rectification would be made within one month.
“It has been eight months but no rectification has been done by NIOS till now. Candidates belonging to other centres have already received their results without any mistake. We hope that our results will be rectified soon now that we have met the chief minister and Tura MP,” another teacher, B Ch Marak said.
